Best LCD TV-set for the C64?
Most people I've talked to, doesn't recommend a LCD TV as a C64 monitor, but my question is: which is the best one? I'm looking forward to a slick C64 setup with 1541U and a very portable monitor. :D

I have one of these: http://www.camos-multimedia.com/index.php?content=products&grou..
They sync perfectly to a 50.12Hz signal, have S-Video (and VGA) input, 4:3 aspect ratio, the resolution (800x600) is high enough to show every pixel and they come in 8 or 10 inch size. Definitely not cheap though. |

'only' 350 euro..... They have really great products though. Bookmarked. Thanks :)
Cruzer: what radiantx says, scrolling is smooth. A small downside, besides the aspect ratio, though is that sometimes due to the resolution a colourbleeding effect can be noticed. Not sure if this also happens with mrsid's superduper display. |

Has anyone tried those small TFT screens which were built to be hooked with PSone? |

They work, but they're only 320x240 in resolution and only 5" in size. Not really suited well for C64 use... |

Umm, some sources claim that resolution of official Sony model is 640 x 480...?!? |

Ordered the 7'' set recommended by Fierman and radiantx. Update rate is definitely more important than aspect ratio. Will consider Mr.SID's one as well for sure, unless someone suggests something cheaper that is as good. |

I was about to recommend the 10" Denver TFT I and Macx got, but it looks like the company selling them (in Sweden) are out of stock.
(They have stores all over Sweden so one of the .se's comming to X could have brought one maybe)

at SEK 999 it's a AWESOME party-monitor.
Running at 4:3 or 16:9 and LOADS of connections...

Total Chaos: Thanx, I was able to find it here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Denver-LED-1030DVBT-10-1-reader-top-up/..
But first, the obligatory question about how it handles smooth scrolling.
I'm also seriously considering this one: :D
